NEIC Track Meet Slated On Wednesday

Decatur high school’s track team will be one of ten members of the Northeastern Indiana conference participating in the conference’s annual track meet Wednesday afternoon. The annual affair will be held at the beautiful Columbia City track, which has asphalt surface for the high jump, broad jump, pole vault and shot put events. The meet will get underway at 3 o’clock Wednesday afternoon, with the high hurdles trials and the opening of the field events. Paul Bienz will be the starter and referee, with Max Gandy of Columbia City the meet manager, and Doc Holycnoss of Columbia City the clerk. Fred Park, Bluffton principal, will be the tourney scorer. , Point System Points will be awarded on a basis of 5-4-3-2-1; relay points will be doubled. Points will be divided in the event of ties. No contestant will be permitted to enter or participate in more than three events, and no contestant will be allowed to enter in both relay races. Decatur finished 10th last season, with just two and one-half points, as Kendallville copped the NEIC track crown. The only Decatur points were scored by Dave Anspaugh, who pole vaulted 11 feet, three inches, which also set a new school record. Local Entrants Unless there is a major surprise, Decatur will likely get points from just four boys. Anspaugh, who vaults better on an asphalt runway, may score in the pole vault, and Dave Hammond could place high in the shot put if he continues his fine putting of plus-47 feet. Buster Melchi and Craig McEwan, who have been cracking the school record in nearly every meet, could score in the low hurdles, and Melchi may place in the high hurdles. Melchi has run the lows in 16 seconds flat, and the highs in 21.7 seconds, while McEwan has done the lows in 16.1 seconds. Melchi has done 19 feet, -five inches in the broad jump, and could score there with that type performance, and McEwan could score in the high jump if he can match or better his best jump of five feet, eight inches this spring. , > The Sfortheastern Indiaagj.. conference track records are as follows: 100—Buffer, New Haven, 1955.

Fifth-Place Teams To Share In Pool NEW YORK (UPD — Major league baseball players have decided to help the not-sofortu-nate of their own kind by including the fifth-place team in each league in the World Series pool. Baseball Commissioner Ford Frick revealed Monday that during this year’s spring training period a vote was taken on whether or not to increase the first division to five clubs, and have the No. 5 teams share in the World Series cut. The players approved by the overwhelming majority of 478-58. The players were told that their vote would have to be approved by the owners but they were given a verbal guarantee it would be done. The voting will be held at the mid-summer meetings. “This should be a mere formality,” Frick said. “We told the players that whatever they decided we would do.” gj The new payoff system will |j be accomplished by taking two fi per cent from the top of the
